[Solved] changing ZSDF goodbye options wont work.

[_reallyTired]

i have been using both SLADE and GZdoombuilder to edit a map together and am dabbling in scripting and the dialogue stuff. so far my dialogue is:

Code: Select all

namespace ="ZDoom";

conversation
{
	Actor = "ExplosiveBarrel";
	ID = 1;
	Page
	{
		Name = "Hello";
		Dialog = "World";
		goodbye = "Leave";
		Choice
		{
			Text = "Test choice";
		}
	}
}

Its not a lot at the minute. i have got it to let me see the dialogue and the test choice and earlier i had it letting me call scripts and things of that nature i just removed all that as i dont need it yet, my only issue is that i still get random goodbye messages. i tried making a language lump and putting it in there and stuff like that, didnt work either.

Hmm... weird. Here's my DIALOGUE script from Metroid Dreadnought, which is very similar to yours but it works fine:

Code: Select all

namespace = "ZDoom";
//include = "SCRIPT00";

conversation {
	//EvilEye test dialog
	id = 2;
	actor = "EvilEye";
	page // 1
	{
		name = "Navigation";
		dialog = "NAVIGATION SYSTEM OPERATIONAL\nSelect Planet";
		goodbye = "Leave Terminal";
		link = 2;
		choice
		{
			text = "GF Safehouse";
			yesmessage = "Destination Home mapped! Inputting coordinates...";
			special = 80;
			arg0 = 1;
			closedialog = true;
		}
		choice
		{
			text = "Savara";
			nextpage = 2;
			require
			{
				item = "Coordinates_Savara";
				amount = 1;
			}
		}
		choice
		{
			text = "Go to Norion.";
			nextpage = 3;
			yesmessage = "Destination Norion mapped! Inputting coordinates...";
			special = 80;
			arg0 = 3;
			closedialog = true;
			require
			{
				item = "Coordinates_Norion";
				amount = 1;
			}
		}
	}

/*-----------------------------------------------------------------
			PAGE DEFINITIONS FOR COORDINATES - DO NOT MOVE
			THIS KEEPS THINGS TIDY AND EASIER FOR ME TO EDIT
-------------------------------------------------------------------*/

	// ---- SAVARA ----
	Page // 2 
	{
		name = "Savara";
		dialog = "Select Landing Site";
		goodbye = "Leave Terminal";
		choice
		{
			text = "Lab Alpha - Cargo Dock";
			yesmessage = "Destination Savara mapped! Inputting coordinates...";
			special = 80;
			arg0 = 2;
			closedialog = true;
			require
			{
				item = "Coordinates_Savara_Alpha";
				amount = 1;
			}
		}
		choice
		{
			text = "Lab Beta";
			yesmessage = "Destination Savara mapped! Inputting coordinates...";
			special = 80;
			arg0 = 2;
			closedialog = true;
			require
			{
				item = "Coordinates_Savara_Beta";
				amount = 1;
			}
		}
		choice
		{
			text = "Back";
			nextpage = 1;
		}
	}
}

I can't find evidence of it, but I wonder if the goodbye string depends on a choice block having an actual option and not just text.

EDIT: Nope, mine works after commenting out everything else. What source port are you using and what version?

What source port are you using and what version?

i was using a really old gzdoom version apparently, i thought i updated everything when i brought my backup over recently after a hard drive formatting but i guess not, updating solved it though thank you very much.
